Netherlands?

Although "Holland" is a region of the Netherlands, it (until comparatively recently) was the common colloquial English term for the country as a whole. Unless there is specific reason to think references refer to Holland itself, this article ought to be merged into the article for the (European) Netherlands itself.86.160.61.43talk to me 16:13, May 24, 2013 (UTC)

The real world matters not as much, it is information that's provided in-universe that matters.
So unless it's stated within a valid source that they're the same the pages will remain separate. See T:IU for more information.
I have however added {{fact}} tags to the information on Netherlands page that states "The Netherlands (sometimes known as Holland) was a nation in Europe." so that editors are alerted to it needing a source. --Tangerineduel / talk 16:47, May 24, 2013 (UTC)
